Summarize an interesting story from mythology that your god is a part of:
Hera one day wanted to drug her husband Zeus. She gatheres a group and ended up being successful. She was doing this because, Zeus was being very rude and demanding to the other god and goddesses and she didn't like it. The group of gods and goddesses helped her and tied Zeus up. Things didnt not turn out as planned for Hera. Zeus then took a thunderbolt and siezed, and hung her. She did get free but had to promise to not take a revolt on him ever again. She agreed and later always knew that she could over think him.
